1. instant transmission and processing information and efficient storing and retrieval of data. 

2. increasing the reach of government both geographically and demographically. 

3. speeding up decision making and increasing transparency and accountability of government processes. E-governance in India has evolved from computerisation of departments to initiatives which are citizen centric and service oriented.
